Chapter 107: Eight Characters Kill Fate, instance ends!
The Evil Dream watched as the holy water drained from the syringe. In just a few seconds, his expression shifted from shock to confusion, then to self-mockery, and finally to relief.
"So, Phantom, this was your final trump card?"
Over there, the nuns who had surrounded Qin Nuo and Lan Yan suddenly froze, staring like statues.
The Good Dream lowered her head, apologizing repeatedly.
The Evil Dream's face remained calm: "You don't need to apologize. I am you. If you truly want to see the outside world, then go."
"But I believe you'll regret it."
"Regret that everything I built for you was destroyed by your own hands."
As he spoke, cracks appeared on the Evil Dream's face, and pieces of skin fell off, turning to dust and disappearing.
The Good Dream looked at the Evil Dream and asked, "I want to know, what is my name?"
"No name.""After we were born, it was as if the world abandoned us. Bastard, mongrel, those were the names they gave us."
"Isn't it pitiful? We lived without even having a name of our own."
"If you want, Dream can be your name from now on."
The Evil Dream walked over, gently embracing the Good Dream, and softly said, "Don't worry, I'll always be by your side."
With that, the Evil Dream's entire body was covered in cracks, turning into a pile of dust and disappearing...
When the Evil Dream completely vanished, the Good Dream felt a slight pain on the back of her hand. Looking down, she saw a purple totem appear, emitting wisps of black air.
The Good Dream remained silent.
At the same time, all the frozen black nuns quickly turned to dust and disappeared.
Lan Yan asked incredulously, "Is it over?"
"It's over."
Qin Nuo nodded, tossing the shotgun back to Lan Yan.
Lan Yan looked at the shotgun in his hand and couldn't help but ask, "So, did this shotgun ever get soaked in holy water?"
"Why don't you smell it?"
Lan Yan took a sniff, his face scrunching up, "Such a strong smell of alcohol!"
"Damn, didn't you say the shotgun was soaked in holy water? A trick within a trick, even I got fooled!"
Qin Nuo glanced at him, "The shotgun couldn't even hit the nuns. Do you think it could hit a boss in an instance?"
"This Evil Dream is stronger than a Horror Level ghost!"
Although the Evil Dream never truly acted, according to the Blood-Eyed Ghost, it far exceeded the Horror Level ghost, possibly reaching Disaster Level! ?
A shotgun, even if soaked in holy water, would be a fantasy to hit such a ghost.
So, Qin Nuo's most comprehensive plan was the Good Dream!
She was the only one who could make the Evil Dream lower its guard.
Qin Nuo, of course, also had an element of gambling.
When the Good Dream first learned the truth and the plan, she remained silent. No one knew what she thought or how she would decide, and Qin Nuo didn't force her.
This was a battle with oneself, and no one else could intervene.
When the syringe went in, the Good Dream had already decided she didn't want to become a soulless shell.
"Then why keep it from me? At that moment, my heart almost jumped out."
"Your acting is too poor. I was afraid you'd give it away," Qin Nuo said calmly.
Lan Yan opened his mouth but ultimately didn't argue back.
Over there, Dream's gaze shifted from her hand to Qin Nuo, "Brother, I might need to sleep for a while."
Dream's body gradually became ethereal.
Qin Nuo walked over, seeing this, and asked in a deep voice, "What's happening?"
Dream's smile was serene, "It's nothing, just a bit sleepy."
"You promised me you'd take me to see the outside world. You weren't lying, right?"
Qin Nuo nodded seriously, "I won't lie to you."
"See you next time."
Dream smiled sweetly, nodded, and then her body turned into a strange light, entering the pendant necklace.
"This pendant necklace, could it also be a terrifying ghost creature?" Lan Yan looked at the necklace on the ground, eyes wide.
"No, it's just a simple necklace."
"The nun who was burned to death, Dream's mother, left only this. The thumb-sized blue sapphire contains all of Dream's thoughts."
"Like a music box, it was the first and last gift her mother gave her as a stranger, teaching her all the ballet and Black Swan dances. It was probably her happiest time in life, the only happy memory."
As he spoke, Qin Nuo reached to pick up the pendant necklace.
However, the moment he touched it, the pendant necklace instantly turned into a dark light, burrowing into Qin Nuo's palm, moving through his body, and finally forming a totem with two wings on his chest.
One angel wing.
One demon wing.
"Could this be?" Qin Nuo's expression changed.
"Yes, soul thought parasitism, another form of contract parasitism."
"Fulfilling the wishes of a departed soul, automatically forming a contract, parasitizing within the body."
"Congratulations, your body now hosts a second ghost," the Blood-Eyed Ghost said with a hint of schadenfreude.
Qin Nuo's mouth twitched, "That girl didn't say she wanted to see the outside world this way..."
"This form of parasitism won't appear at any time, only when the host is truly in life-threatening danger."
"In other words, you're not at a loss, you've gained a guardian angel."
"And this girl is not an ordinary ghost," the Blood-Eyed Ghost, clearly knowledgeable, said.
"What do you mean?" Qin Nuo asked.
"The mark on your chest signifies she's a 'Death God Fiend' ghost."
"In this world, ghosts with a Ba Zi Sha life are the most terrifying, almost at the top. The Death God Fiend is one of them."
"How strong?" Qin Nuo couldn't help but ask.
"She could exchange a few moves with me when I had all nine blood eyes open," the Blood-Eyed Ghost chuckled.
Qin Nuo found it amusing, "So, after all that, you're just praising yourself?"
"Believe it or not."
Qin Nuo touched the wing mark on his chest, murmuring, "So, with this girl, I can walk unchallenged in the Horror World?"
"Dream too much, and you'll wake up laughing," the Blood-Eyed Ghost doused cold water without hesitation.
"First, a ghost with a Ba Zi Sha life only means it has extremely terrifying potential, not that it's already fearsome. Many die young, and less than one percent fully realize their potential."
"Second, this girl is very weak now, sleeping soundly, who knows when she'll wake up!"
Qin Nuo didn't mind, saying, "No matter, I quite like this girl. I named her, and when she wakes up someday, she might be more reliable than you."
The Blood-Eyed Ghost snorted, "Ba Zi Sha life, I've never been afraid. Back then, the 'General Star' and 'Calamity Fiend' ghosts..."
"Your glorious deeds, tell me later. I'm not in the mood to chat now."
Qin Nuo said, noticing the mental hospital was changing.
Those burn marks weren't illusions; they were truly burning the walls.
The great fire from back then was reenacting!
The raging flames swept through like a gale, turning everything they touched to ash.
"Everything is disappearing," Lan Yan observed the surroundings.
"Everything was just imprisoned souls. Now that the prison is gone, what awaits them might be annihilation, but at least it's a form of release..." Qin Nuo said.
Innocent souls being imprisoned, wasn't that a form of torture for them?
Like the patients in each ward, their activities limited to their rooms, repeating the same habits day after day.
In Room 303, Xiao Yue, the twins, Bai Qu, and Mute Sister looked up at the night sky outside the window, their bodies covered in cracks, gradually dissipating...
In Room 302, Yue Qin leaned against the wall, also disappearing.
In Room 301, Zhang Ya stopped applying makeup, the child cleared the latest level, showing an excited smile.
On the balcony, the old man put down the magazine of a sexy lady, leaned back in the wicker chair, picked up a tuft of tobacco, took a puff of his old cigarette, and exhaled.
Watching the white smoke dissipate, he murmured, "Tsk, really can't help it..."
In the dormitory building, all the players noticed these anomalies, waking up in shock, bewildered by the changes in their rooms.
"What happened?"
"Congratulations to Player Phantom for successfully uncovering the mastermind and completing the main quest with Players Emperor and Lan Yan. This instance game ends here!"
"What, the game is over?"
Many players' faces changed dramatically.
Then, almost all the players screamed in excitement, cheering and jumping for joy. The ten-day nightmare was finally over!
"So this is what it's like to be carried by a god. If they hadn't completed the main quest, ending the game early, we would have had five more days of nightmare!"
"Thanks to the three gods, ancestors of our ancestors!"
"Who Phantom is doesn't matter, they're eternal!"
Then, beams of light descended from the sky, enveloping the players, preparing to transport them back to the game space.
In one room, Fu Bing turned over, exposing his belly, snoring like thunder, completely unaware the game had ended until a beam of light transported him away...
Lan Yan and Qin Nuo were also transported away.
Blinding light appeared before their eyes, and as it gradually faded, they opened their eyes.
The remaining players all appeared in the void of the game space.
When the instance ended, the players looked at each other as if they had become old friends, hugging tightly and wishing each other well.
The Emperor understood when he saw the game space, turning to look at Qin Nuo and Lan Yan behind him.
Lan Yan pointed at Qin Nuo, saying, "The god carried us, I was just support."
"The scene at the end, you missed it, what a pity, my heart almost jumped out."
"I really wonder if you took a calming pill to stay so composed!"
Qin Nuo said, "This might be the difference between people."
"This instance might have a 16.0 rating too?"
"Tsk, two 16.0 ratings, those guild people outside might go crazy again," Lan Yan couldn't help but say.
Qin Nuo raised an eyebrow.
From what he said, Lan Yan was also one of those guild people?
